His vision

In order to avoid a "generation without memories", we need the printed picture on photographic color paper. In this connection, it does not make any difference, if these pictures are printed in our CeWe Production Plants or are ordered via our DigiFoto Makers directly in the store.

Profile CeWe Color

Photo service company CeWe Color, with 19 highly-technical production operations and a staff of around 3,000 employees in 24 European countries, is both market and technological leader. The company supplied around 2.9 billion photos, more than 500,000 CeWe photo books and various photo gift articles to 60,000 retail partners in 2006. In 2006 turnover amounted to EUR400.5 million. CeWe Color is "first mover" in the launch of new digital technologies, for example ordering digital photos in the Internet or with the help of order terminals (DigiFoto Makers) in retail stores. Personalised CeWe digital PHOTO BOOKS are selling very well. In 1961, CeWe Color was founded by Senator h.c. Heinz Neumüller and, with Hubert Rothärmel at the helm, the company went public in 1993.
